Château Lafite Rothschild 2012 Les Carruades de Lafite (Pauillac)

Country: France / Les Carruades de Lafite
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend Bordeaux
Winery: Château Lafite Rothschild / Pauillac

Lafite’s second wine is much closer to a balance of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot that the first wine. It’s also a properly rich, satisfying wine that is as much fruit as structure. Packed with blackberry fruits, it has a fresh character that dominates the firmer tannins and touch of bitter chocolate. Drink from 2020.
